Salt Lake City’s three-day DIY Festival moves west to the more spacious state Fairpark

Craft Lake City officials announced Wednesday that the three-day event — which spent its first 10 years at the Gallivan Center in downtown — now will be held at the Utah State Fairpark, 155 N. 1000 West.

"With the Fairpark’s spacious air-conditioned buildings and large grassy areas, we know that patrons and participants alike will enjoy this venue change,” festival founder Angela H. Brown said. “Our new home allows for future festival growth and the ability to offer indoor and outdoor festival programing.”
